Ooh baby, oh-ah, uh-huh
Two hearts, two of a kind
Love at first sight
Why do they say love is blind?

Slow down
We don't have to move fast
'Cause the love that is real
Is made to last

Take it one heartbeat
At a time
Close your eyes
And let your soul unwind

Sooner or later
It'll all fall in line
If we take it
One heartbeat at a time
One heartbeat

Oooh
We paint a picture
Walkin' down the street
Leaves are fallin', baby
So are we

Hand in hand
That's the way it should be
How could somethin' so easy
Make me feel so complete

Take it One heartbeat
At a time
Close your eyes
And let your soul unwind

Sooner or later
It'll all fall in line
If we take it
One heartbeat at a time
One heartbeat at a time

Take it easy, ooh
I want to feel your every emotion

Shh... don't talk
And we'll be makin' love
In slow motion, oooh
Slow motion baby
Slow motion baby

Take it one heartbeat
At a time
Close your eyes
And let your soul unwind

Sooner or later
It'll all fall in line
If we take it
One heartbeat at a time
One heartbeat
One heartbeat at a time
Slow motion baby
One heartbeat ow!
Slow motion baby

Sooner or later
It'll all fall in line
If we take it

One heartbeat yeah
One heartbeat ooh, baby
Sooner or later
It'll all fall in line
If we take it
One heartbeat
If we take it

Smokey Robinson

Arguably the greatest songwriter of the latter half of the 20th century, Robinson’s timeless creations for Motown, both for his own group and for other artists, provided the ultimate example of what a pop song can be. From The Beatles to Bob Dylan, the rest of the 60s followed in his wake

As if that wasn’t enough, he created a whole new genre in the mid-70s with “quiet storm”, a radio format named after one of his songs. He continues writing and performing today.
